Information technology — Biometric data interchange format — Part 15: Palm crease image data

ISO/IEC 19794-15:2017 specifies an image interchange format for biometric person identification or verification technologies that utilize human palm crease biometric images and can be used for the exchange and comparison of palm crease image data. It specifies a data record interchange format for storing, recording, and transmitting palm crease biometric information from palm crease imaging. It defines the contents, format, and units of measurement for the image exchange. The format consists of mandatory and optional items, including scanning parameters, compressed or uncompressed image specifications and vendor-specific information. Information compiled and formatted in accordance with this document can be recorded on machine-readable media or may be transmitted by data communication facilities.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are
members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical
committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical
activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the
work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee,
ISO/IEC JTC 1.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for
the different types of document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject
of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the

Introduction
Palm crease biometric technologies have existed for many years. Additionally, new technologies
employing palm crease images obtained from hands are emerging or under continuous improvement as
a result of new, state-of-the-art imaging devices for mobile applications or web services.
Currently however, palm crease biometric image information is being exchanged between the
equipment and devices from different vendors without standardized format is the problem. This is due
in part to the lack of standardized formats for information exchange that would ensure interoperability
among the various vendors.
The purpose of this document is to define a standard for the exchange of human palm crease biometric
image information. The standard defines specific attributes, a data record format for storing and
transmitting palm crease biometric images and certain attributes, a sample record, and conformance
criteria.
This document is intended for applications requiring the exchange of raw or processed palm crease
biometric images. It is intended for applications not limited by the amount of storage required. It is a
compromise or a trade-off between storage and quality and can be resolved by standardized format.
It enables various algorithms to identify or verify the palm crease biometric image data transferred
from other image sources. Currently, available palm crease biometric technologies that may utilize
this document for image exchange are technologies that use palm for mobile applications for identify
verification or web services.
The use of captured source images can provide interoperability among and between vendors relying
on various different recognition or verification algorithms. Accordingly, data from the captured palm
crease biometric image offers the developer more freedom in choosing or combining a comparison
subsystem
In this document, Annex A contains the conformance testing methodology and Annex B contains the
XML schema. Annex C contains the XML sample program.
